Jensen Henry Obituary
Our precious baby boy, Jensen Lane Henry, was born into the arms of Jesus on November 29, 2025, in Athens, Texas. Though he never took a breath on this earth, he was deeply loved, longed for, and carried with endless hope by his parents, Rusty Shane and Ashley Nicole (Lauderdale) Henry.
Jensen is lovingly survived by his parents, Rusty & Ashley Henry of Kemp, Texas; his big sister, Emma June Henry of Kemp, Texas, who was so excited to welcome her baby brother; his maternal grandparents, Jerry & Cheryl Lauderdale of Gun Barrel City, Texas; his paternal grandparents, Vickie Henry and husband Michael Blakey of Kemp, Texas, and Terry Henry of Caney, Oklahoma; his great-grandmother, lovingly known as Meemaw, of Kemp, Texas; and his aunts and uncles, Krystal & Brad Gilmore of Mabank, Texas; Meagan & Josh Pierson of Mabank, Texas; and Michael Lauderdale of Gun Barrel City, Texas.
He is preceded in death by his maternal great-grandfather and his paternal great-grandparents.
Though Jensen’s time with us was brief, the love he brought into this world will forever remain in the hearts of those who dreamed of him, prayed for him, and will always carry him close. His memory will be cherished forever.
“Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.” — Jeremiah 1:5
